All I know is that two years ago when i went to Washington to cover the United Council's efforts with legislators, Kasten's office was the only one that wouldn't make a concrete statement of effort to increase the grant portion of grant:loan student supplements. They wouldn't make an affirmative statement on funding for post-secondary funding at all, for that matter. Kasten didn't even meet with us; he sent an aide, who patiently explained that there were already commitments made to defense interests. On the other hand, he sent us all nice letters thanking us for stopping in. Vote like a Democrate with manners of a Republican. Yeah. -- A little bit of uh huh and a whole lot of oh yeah. \ (414)CRUSH-13 T. Flynn's Casa de Interesting: 1755 N Cambridge Ave #306 Milwaukee WI 53202
